Aging Overview

External factors

External factors: PUVA
Aging type: Accelerate
Aging characteristic:
Category: Other
Phenotype: Aging
Experimental category: L
Tissue type: Foreskin
Cell name: HDF
PMID: 23278893
Experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay//Cell morphological analysis//ELISA//qRT-PCR
Description: After 2 weeks, PUVA HDFs showed the typical enlarged and flattened senescent-like morphology and displayed de novo expression of SA-β-gal showing an expression fourfold higher than the control cells.Two weeks after PUVA,we observed a relevant decrease in type I pro-collagen expression and a significant increase in the release of MMP-1.

R-EF-Target gene: Downregulation
Official symbol(s): PPARG
Target gene experiment: Luciferase reporter assay
Target gene description: PUVA exposure decreased luciferase expression of PPARγ at 24 and 48 h.
